'''Mission:'''
 
World University and School's mission is free education, courses, and degrees in all known languages. WUaS plans to accredit at the university and high school levels to offer online degrees and diplomas in all countries' main languages. World University and School (http://worlduniversityandschool.org - like Wikipedia with best Creative Commons' licensed OpenCourseWare) seeks also to facilitate all levels of teaching and learning through open, editable wikis. WUaS’s wiki will involve open and editable teaching and learning but also non-editable courses prepared under a Creative Commons’ license. WUaS will facilitate the use of free CC courses as credits toward degrees. Due to the rapid spread of broadband worldwide, WUaS plans to make this accessible to underserved parts of the world and to poor people everywhere. WUaS will explore the possibility of using universal translators to extend the project automatically to any language with time.
Mission: World University & School's (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University - like Wikipedia with MIT Open Course Ware) - mission, in reaching out to the entire world, is to provide a free, wiki-based education platform and, through facilitating the development of broadband worldwide, to make our service accessible to under served parts of the world. The WUaS mission is thus to facilitate all levels of teaching and learning opportunities (and future degrees) through an open, editable wiki in all languages, nation-states and subjects with great universities, and for One Laptop per Child countries and everyone.
